Since this group of people went north, they have experienced many battles and have improved very quickly, and their combat effectiveness is obvious to all.

With the elite troops of two thousand wealthy families as the backbone, supplemented by thousands of strong men, it was originally a bit of a mess. After fighting for several months, a group of old and weak soldiers were eliminated with casualties, and those who survived were all good soldiers.

He has decided that Yang Dan will stay in Hebei and serve as an official.

The prefect of Qinghe was transferred to another place, and Qinghe County was given to Yang Dan. From now on, you can live in peace and contentment in Hebei.

A messenger suddenly arrived. After dismounting from his horse, he loudly reported: "Ming Gong, the thieves have fled in large numbers, and Yi Congjun has sent troops to pursue them. The four generals Yang, Zhang, You, and Bo have asked us to punish the thieves as a warning to others."

The words were very vague, but they were actually asking for permission to burn, kill and loot.

Shao Xun was silent for a while.

At this time, your control over the troops will be tested.

If the attackers were the Silver Spear Army or the Black Gun Army, Shao Xun could dismiss them with just one sentence.

But those who requested the massacre were Yang Dan, Zhang Jack, You Lun, Bo Sheng and others, representing Nanyang soldiers, Wubao masters, refugee commanders and beggar soldiers respectively. They were not directly affiliated with Shao Xun and their prestige was not yet established.

The human heart is not attached.

Of course you can force it down, and they may reluctantly accept it after weighing the pros and cons, but the dissatisfaction and resentment in their hearts are inevitable. After all, so many people were killed and injured in the siege, shouldn't they vent it out?

The military discipline of Liu Xiu's troops was so poor, and they committed crimes everywhere in the process of unifying the world. It was simply not like the king's division. Maybe it was for this reason - he didn't have any direct troops!

"The soldiers risked their lives and sacrificed their lives, and finally destroyed the city. I am also very grateful for them." Shao Xun said: "How can I bear to do so many crimes? Hebei's vitality has been seriously damaged, and the Hu and Han people in Anping are still alive.

Tens of thousands, killing them will harm Tianhe. We will count the households in the city. I am willing to redeem them from my private purse and give each person a piece of cloth."

"The shogunate will reward those who have meritorious service first."

"After a long and tiring journey, the captured cattle and sheep will be rewarded at the festival level."

"Generals with outstanding military exploits should submit their names. I will personally review them and recommend them to officers."

"Tell Yang Pengzu that the governor of Qinghe belongs to him."

After giving the instructions, Shao Xun waved his hand and asked the messenger to deliver the order.
